Fanhua-Sinatay Yixiang is a pension annuity that is designed to help hedge against inflation and secure a lifetime stable annuity income stream. This plan, among others, boasts the advantages of high cash value, short payback periods, an internal rate of return of up to 3.965% and monthly annuity payout guaranteed for 25 years, meeting the multifaceted needs of mid/high-net-worth individuals.

This is another major breakthrough of Fanhua in tapping into the savings insurance segment and echoes our commitment to keeping innovating our ideas and products to better meet evolving market needs.”
